- new headers if i can afford a decent set (sell B16a/Y21)
- Fit Exhaust
- work out any bugs in set up (bound to be some...)

- general maintenance closer to time, oil - filter etc

Re: Whats your To-Do List For NIMM?
well mine is as follows:

Immediate:

- re-build motor
- re-build gearbox
- install new conversion harness
- re-install race seat

Optional:

- install oil/water temp gauges
- new pcv/ catch can system

nothing too difficult. just costly. then theres the possibility that 98 will be $3/L then theres over 1,000km of travelling to get to the track.

I figured that the car is only going to be used for track days and long distance trips and the price wasnt fuck all more than Reds anyway.

Other stuff to add...

- Get new bonnet
- Wash, was, wash wax.


Wax on - Wax off - Wax on - Wax off

Re: Whats your To-Do List For NIMM?
  • Get new daily wheels
  • Paint SSRs
  • Try and sort semi slicks
  • Upgrade pads and fluid. Maybe new rotors.
  • Find a bucket and perhaps a harness
  • Baffled sump possibly
  • Oil change
  • Learn to drive

Shouldn't be any issues.

Re: Whats your To-Do List For NIMM?
- Install Energy Suspension bushing kit
- New shocks+springs (Koni/Neuspeed setup)
- New exhaust to replace factory system
- New Mugen slotted rotors all round + EBC Redstuff pads
- New Beaks EK quick-swap sway bar kit (if I can afford it)

Though with the way it's looking right now, I may have to hold off for another year too many other things I need to pay for around the end of the year as well. Plus I think I've missed out on entry already anyway.
